1986 Little Havana bank robbery

The 1986 Little Havana bank robbery was a bank heist that occurred in 1986 when Tommy Vercetti, Phil Cassidy, Cam Jones, and Hilary King robbed a corrupt bank in the Little Havana neighborhood of Miami, Florida. The ensuing robbery saw the robbers break into the bank and force the manager to open the vault, but the alarm was sounded by some of the guards, leading to the SWAT attempting to storm the bank. Jones and King were killed by the SWAT, but the robbers made off with $200,000, with Vercetti, Cassidy, Mercedes Cortez, and Kent Paul having cuts of the money.

Background
In 1986, Tommy Vercetti and his lawyer Ken Rosenberg decided to plan out a bank robbery to earn some extra money, and Vercetti gathered a crew of experienced criminals. He busted the safecracker Cam Jones from prison, impressed "the shootist" Phil Cassidy with his firearm skills at a practice range, and beat the fast driver Hilary King in a race, convincing them to join him for the bank job. The bank robbers planned out the heist from the Malibu Club, which was owned by Vercetti and his organization. Vercetti, Jones, Cassidy, and King drove to the corrupt bank in Little Havana in a taxicab, and they all dressed in gray boiler suits while wearing hockey masks. Cassidy, Vercetti, and Jones left the taxi, while Vercetti instructed King to drive around the neighborhood for a while before he would pick the robbers up.

Robbery
The robbers entered the bank and told the customers that they were raiding the bank, forcing them into a corner. Cassidy was put on crowd control as Vercetti and Jones headed upstairs to open the safe, and they engaged in a shootout with the security guards before they reached the vault. Jones found out that the safe would take forever to crack, so Vercetti found the manager in his office and forced him to open the safe for the criminals. The criminals stole the money and headed downstairs via the elevator to check on Cassidy, and they heard the alarm go off as one of the patrons hit the button. The robbers were forced to take up shooting positions as SWAT stormed the building through the ceiling and the windows, and the SWAT troopers were killed or forced back. The robbers made their way out of the building, where King pulled up in his cab. He told the robbers that he had them covered, but he was gunned down, as was Jones. Cassidy and Vercetti escaped in a Sabre Turbo sports car and reached Cam's Can Openers, Cam Jones' store, where they met up with Vercetti's lover Mercedes Cortez and record producer Kent Paul. There, they divided their score so that everyone would gain $50,000 from the robbery.
